Lightning Bolts and Dew Drops: A Cauldron of Poesy presents a broad
range of poetic themes and flavours that bubble and blast through
this work. Inspirational sparks meld with sentimental splashes as
the gamut of human experience is played with to the full. John-Paul
works with wit and pulls no punches in honesty, whether from
heart-felt personal exposure, to biting political and social
commentary. Yet each poem seems imbued with a spiritual essence, a
quality of enlightenment that is intoxicating. The author's
signature technique of alliterative verse, taps into the earliest
period of the Irish poetic tradition. Flowering from the work of
the Filid (poetic seers) and creating a rich phonetic tapestry that
sings from the page. John-Paul Patton is truly a poet for our time.
He draws on the ancient heritage of Ireland, while expressing its
contemporary zeitgeist, through Imbas Forosnai (Illuminated
Inspiration).
